Notes from CCB Meeting which impact this committee: Role of the coach in the 6 circles – intertwined with SAS. Need a systemic approach to implementation of SAS. Build into the strand at the Governor's Institute – support for coaching. Turn a want into a need. Make coaching NOT expendable. PD sessions should tie to the SAS circles. Here’s where we are in terms of your PD: which circle Not independent, isolated circles.

What do we mean by "Models" of Coaching - needs to be defined Targeted focus Common/Core Concepts Concrete Examples

Look at effectives modesl from the context of Sports coaches: __Coaching is Not Just for Athletes__ – Ellen Guiney (Phi Delta Kappa)

Look at th PAHSCI log, the CFF log, and the Reading First log from a "model" lens (not evaluation lens) What is the difference: Effectiveness of Model vs. Effectiveness of the Coach?

Trends Flexibility 6 Circles What does the Support Model look like? PDE Mentor, TIMs, PIIC Mentors What would a Systemic approach look like?

What is the impact of flexibility and trends on different approaches e.g. sharing a coach, how individual districts are effected Professional Learning Opportunities that come from the log Tiz wants to be in on the conversation about what defines a model. Approaches to Coaching; who’s in the system? What do they do in that system? M.C. Moran – framework for models of coaching Annemarie will add her article. Significance of Coach Certification?
